dyer went edgy, raised prices and it worked. came in chico expanded everywhere with different size stores including bigger, less boutiquey ones. dyer spent more on infrastructure to make sure the merchandise arrived in a timely fashion. he also stopped opening the bigger stores to get back to chico's old boutique identity. most important of all, dyer decided to stop trying to please wall street, which wanted endless willy-nilly growth and that's something chico's and most retailers can't handle. he went for profitability instead of expanding crazily. he won back the consumer. and then later once it got real profitable he won back wall street. the result, a tremendous revival of sales with revenues rising 21% year over year, same-store sales up 9.6% on top of a 7.7% increase from last year's first quarter. chico's is now growing its square footage by 8% annually and is on firm footing to expand methodically and profitably. dyer's work proves that jcpenney has a fighting chance. the remarkable comeback of the once left for dead ch

. >> and now that's my take with wttg vice president and general manager duffy dyer. >> back on may 7 tonight a hearing was held by the house jew dish -- 17th a hearing was held by the house judiciary subcommittee on a bill to ban abortions in the district of columbia after 20 weeks except to save the mother's life. regardless of where you live in the country, the issue of abortion rights can always be counted on to generate a deeply emotional outpouring of rhetoric, but if you live in the district of columbia, there is much more at stake. beyond the issue of women's reproductive rights there is the issue of congress' desire to dictate to the citizens of the district on social issues and to do so without consulting with any of the district's elected officials. delegate eleanor holmes norton was denied the opportunity to speak to the issue at this hearing even though past practice would have allowed it. she was not given permit to ask questions or comment on the witnesses. she declined. this is a deeply divisive social issue that won't allow the district's represent to address the pane

. >> and now that's my take with wttg vice president and general manager duffy dyer. >> late last year the d.c. city council passed much needed comprehensive legislation that overalled the city's ethics laws. while the final form of the legislation had its share of critics, it was generally applauded as the proper response to address the string of ethical lapses that plagued the city's elected officials. at the time of passage many realized there was still much work to be done before the new board of ethics and government accountability could actually start policing the conduct of elected officials. one of the first tasks at hand was assigned to mayor vincent gray who was to provide the names of qualified candidates for the three member board within 45 days after an emergency version of the legislation went into effect. that deadline has already come and gone and still there have been no names of qualified candidates passed on to the city council. ouncil. you would think that the mayor whose 2010 campaign is under federal investigation would jump at the chance to play his part in the c
